Corrective Action Plans

This years single audit was not sent timely due to the transition in the finance department and an oversight by staff and our auditors. This report should have been filed timely but we did not start working on the single audit until well after the fiscal year-end. This is an oversight that cannot happen again.

Name of contact person: Craig Hughes, Executive Director Corrective Action: Finance procedures will be updated to include submission confirmation of the reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Proposed Completion Date: January 31, 2026.

Recommendation: We recommend the Town evaluate the process and design of internal controls over financial reporting, including the SEFA and SESA, in order to ensure readiness for the audit and to avoid late filing of the data collection form. Management’s Response:: The Town will implement internal controls to ensure the filing deadline is met. Jason Vieira of the Towns Finance Department is responsible for the corrective action plan.

The Organization will reinforce its filing control environment by implementing a documented reporting calendar and assigning responsibility to finance leadership for reviewing and certifying timely submission of future single audit reporting packages.

We acknowledge that the absence of an on-site Chief Financial Officer has presented considerable challenges in ensuring compliance with the timely completion of audits and data collection initiatives. In response to this issue, we are pleased to announce the appointment of a qualified on-site CFO who will oversee our financial operations. Furthermore, our Fiscal team will also be present in the office to enhance our financial management practices. The introduction of the new CFO, along with the support of the Fiscal Department, will significantly improve our capacity to meet compliance requirements and deadlines. This change will enable us to optimize our financial processes more effectively. We remain committed to maintaining a high standard of compliance and ensuring that all necessary submissions are completed promptly.

View of Responsible Official and Corrective Action The delay in the submission of the Data Collection Form was a direct result of the audit team moving to a new accounting firm and a miscommunication as to which firm was going to assist with the completion of the Data Collection Form. Management has taken steps to ensure that the Data Collection Form for the year-ended June 30, 2025 will be submitted timely. Upon identifying the late submission, management immediately completed the submission of the 2024 Data Collection Form and reporting package on August 12, 2025.

Views of Responsible Officials: Management acknowledges the conditions noted in this finding. The delays in audit completion and account reconciliations were primarily attributable to significant staff transition within the accounting department during the fiscal year. ICFJ has since stabilized its accounting function and is committed to implementing a formal monthly close process to ensure timely and accurate financial reporting going forward. A monthly close checklist will be developed and maintained, with documented evidence of review and approval. All financial and compliance documents will be filed in a centralized, organized system to permit prompt retrieval.  Anticipated completion date: 12/31/26  Responsible position: Chief Financial Officer

We agree with the recommendations offered and will establish policies to ensure timely filing of the Single Audit reporting package in accordance with applicable requirements. As noted above, DWX is replacing its legacy accounting system with Deltek Costpoint, which should result in more timely reporting and audits. The anticipated completion date is October 2026.

Recommendation We recommend that UVNR strengthen its financial close and audit preparation procedures by: - Establishing a formal year-end closing and Single Audit calendar; - Assigning responsibility for preparing the financial statements, SEFA, and audit schedules; - Monitoring audit requests and outstanding documentation throughout the audit; - Establishing internal deadlines sufficiently in advance of the Federal Audit Clearinghouse deadline; and - Providing requested documentation to the auditor by agreed-upon dates to allow sufficient time to complete and file the audit timely. Management Response Corrective Action: Management agrees with the finding, and we recognize the importance of strengthening the year-end financial close and audit preparation process to ensure timely completion of the annual audit and Single Audit. The late completion of the audit, and consequently the late filing of the Data Collection Form, resulted from a combination of circumstances, including challenges encountered during UVNR’s audit preparation process, as well as staff transitions within both the UVNR's outsourced accounting firm and our auditing firm during the same period. To address the finding, UVNR will implement a formal year-end closing and Single Audit calendar that establishes key milestones, internal deadlines, and assigned responsibilities for all financial reporting and audit-related activities. Specific staff will be designated as responsible for the preparation and review of the financial statements, Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA), and all required audit schedules and supporting documentation. Management will also implement a centralized process for tracking auditor requests and monitoring the status of outstanding documentation throughout the audit to ensure timely responses. Internal deadlines will be established well in advance of the Federal Audit Clearinghouse filing deadline to provide sufficient time for management review, auditor fieldwork, resolution of audit questions, and final report issuance. These corrective actions are intended to improve the efficiency of the financial close process, strengthen accountability, and ensure that future audits are completed and submitted within all required deadlines. Many of the recommendations have been established and are being implemented for the upcoming 2025 annual and Single Audit to ensure we meet the Federal Audit Clearinghouse deadline in September 2026.
